👇👇MD MERCH CLICK HERE👇👇: FULL SHOP: md-fish-tanks.creator-spring.com Recently I visited the USA and stayed at my friend @christopher_scott house whilst going to the aquarium show Aquashella. Whilst there, we aquascaped his son Max's tank in his gaming room. We went for an Amazon style and selected fish that would suit this setup.

[@christopher_scott]

Thank you MD for such an amazing setup! You are a great friend and I look forward to getting to the UK soon and for you to be back in the US as well!

[@bsrrieadgie3040]

Yes Chris I have watched md from day one 🐠 🌿 💦

[@jenpink4298]

Your little boy is adorable!

[@angiebear8727]

The look of fascination in your boy’s eyes 😊 loved it. Beautiful tank

[@lpoolck17]

The tank looks great. Looking forward to seeing updates of it on your channel.

[@dennisthickett4941]

Hi chris, your tank looks great... not over planted so you can still see that lovely piece of wood ...... (without moss 😊). I do love to see the Angel fish in what I would call their original form , which I remember seeing when I had my first dip into fishkeeping , back in the mid 1970's. All the best Dennis.👍.

[@garrypeak4277]

The only thing that could have made this better was if Matt was along for the ride. But I’m not sure how Matthew would do in the heat 😂

[@MDFishTanks]

he started the trip with me but unfortunately melted on day 1....

[@pkoppart]

@@MDFishTanks 😂

[@Nomadistar]

@@MDFishTanks RIP Matt! Poor soul should have stuck to hanging out with MD on a bike. Gonna miss ya.

[@inmadiaz3029]

Tu estilo ya tiene una marca registrada, MD!!

[@sebnotpleb7702]

Hearing MD say Daddy chill has given me motivation to live.

[@Jen.K]

This is my favorite aquascaping channel and definitely fuels my addiction. In 3 months I have put together 3 nano tanks inspired by your designs. I don't know how long I will be able to restrain myself from getting something bigger. I don't really have any spare room in my house.... the addiction is real.

[@the1andonlytitch]

I love Chris he fits in so well the extended MD Fish Tanks universe

[@kwackytankslap9339]

Great choice on the angelfish. I much prefer the more natural looking variants.

[@PredictableEnigma]

Lovely scape. Glad you had a great time. Those angelfish are going to eat the neon tetra.

[@kylebillings7659]

This is great. You should do a series where you do a scape for people at their house. I’m sure you would have allot of people wanting you to help them.

[@lizzyanthus1]

Oh yes, that's a great idea!

[@marymendez4178]

That tank didn't looked it's age of 22 year's, I love this scape, absolutely stunning. The angelfish and neon's are fabulous to see grouped together. Thank you MD and Christopher for letting us go for the ride.

[@roytrudgian2547]

Angles are going to have feild day, with the neons Yum, yum.

[@markfranklin8831]

That's so awesome that kid is going to have so many conversations with his friends about who put this together so so special. Love it thanks for sharing 💗✌️👍💯

[@markkucharski2272]

MY FAVORITE TANK!! (my next setup) PURELY PERFECT!! Nice and big tank but not overly excessive big... all natural, nicely filled, nicely lighted. 3D set up. I LOVE IT!!

[@jmaxwell1206]

LMFAO!!! A DADDY CHILL REFERENCE IN AN MD VIDEO??? IM DYIN!!!!!

[@acasidelove4728]

Upgraded from 10 gallon to 40 gallon fish tank, and aquascaped by watching MD Fish Tanks videos!!

[@andipratmoko1983]

Amazing..

[@karlmcbarnette6736]

Beautiful tank indeed, however I'm sckeptical about Angel fish. I once had a large angel in a tank with a school of Neons and never once saw any sign of outward aggression but oddly enough, every morning there would be 1 or 2 less Neons than the night before. It was not until I stayed up one night to monitor the behaviors (After lights-out) that I witnessed the Angel INHALING and EATING a Neon! I re-homed him and hadn't gotten any since. Maybe isolated but something to be aware of

[@LargeChap]

Yep. They eat neons in the wild, and will eat them in the tank. Better off with larger tetra.

[@ЮлияГалахова-б5х]

Как красиво!!! И так здорово видеть счастливое лицо ребёнка!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Shane-ps3rn]

Stunning tank I just fear for the neons as the Angel fish get bigger. Angels have always picked my neons off in the past. Gave up moved to African cichlids now that’s another story.

[@hraz7134]

MD, adult angelfish will 100% eat neon tetras and maybe the otocinclus too Neon tetras are a natural food source for angels so they will start disappearing soon You may want to warn him 😅

[@dinhovs8327]

É muito legal ver um aquario Amazonico ser montado em outro país! parabens!

[@Billy_The_Frog]

what a beauty of a tank, absolutely stunning

[@johnpatterson9219]

Wow, it looks amazing - so natural looking!

[@TangoWhiteTrash]

Ain't nothin' finer than an ice cold shiner!

[@jenpink4298]

This looks beautiful! And you absolutely cannot go wrong with angels and neons! Well done 💕

[@hraz7134]

Except angelfish are natural predators of neon tetras so those neons won't last long 😬

[@rowlandfamily1050]

The irony!!!

[@WildWestAutoDetailing]

Just for a 100 gal and wouldn’t feel any motivation to do so without this page

[@Dubravkuh]

This is my favorite fish channel! Thank you for the awesome content MD!🤙

[@PaulAllen6304]

Great scape. Good job. My question though, how do you keep angels and neon tetras together? My angels snack on cardinals and neons

[@redneckfury]

This tank turned out gorgeous! One of my favorites so far for sure!!

[@piacnm]

Beautiful!! 🥰 In love with those corys 🤩🤩 and what a sweet kid ❤️ sure he will love it.

[@craigurrito]

Gotta love Chris kids review of it. Nice seeing little ones who love the hobby

[@kered36]

What an amazing looking aquarium, that wood combined with the 3D background is just fantastic. I definitely think that MD should do a set up in his studio useing this 3D idea.

[@lakeshiamills1454]

MD and Christopher Scott collab is chefs kiss! A beautiful tank!

[@eddieington6243]

Hope you had a safe journey back to the UK, MD. Your enthusiasm is infectious.

[@JoseLuis-tq4tg]

Looks awesome! I will say though that my experience with large Angels and Neons and smaller Black Neon Tetras has been bad, most of my large angels eat the tetras, even cardinals which broke my heart as I had to sell a school of 20+ of them. Hopefully the plants fill in more and help with that, I had these problems in 55 and 75g tanks this been larger may help as well. I now only keep angels with Tetras like the Emperor or larger.

[@valmercado7029]

If I were to stock the tank, I would select a different tetra besides neon. They are too small to be eaten by the angelfish. Maybe now they are good but give it a few months and they will be angelfish food.

[@BarityOne]

Dude, you should do tank rescue videos. Help people fix their tanks. That would be awesome.

[@lanalovesjesus6133]

SerpaDesigns does a great job making his own 3d backgrounds if you wanna see how to make them

[@emdee20817]

We probably shouldn't be comparing, but after seeing how dirty the tanks look in the American fish shop, we appreciate the tidy-ness of Matt's fish shop✨😋

[@GROCK619]

The BIG smile at the END .by his Son..seals the DEAL !!!!

My favorite Gump quote is, “I might not be a smart man but I know what love is.”

[@faedoyle4147]

One of the best collaborations EVER!! Love MD and Chris so much!! ❤❤❤

[@zjsfiercefame]

Love your dynamics in your friendships. ❤

[@karenthegoodtwin6908]

Very nice tank. Love Angels. 🐠

[@candiwine]

Love the angels with red eyes

[@elc2468]

Beautiful tank! One of my favorites so far! Love it!

[@angelaphsiao]

Shoutout to dallas north aquarium! That’s where I got all my fish and tank decor!

[@profoxracer]

I’m so glad you came to the USA or America!! I know Chris has been wanting you to visit for awhile.. as in years!! And man the work you do with the tanks is amazing!! Can’t wait to see the next video

[@lizzyanthus1]

Oh that looks so good! Great job MD and Christopher! Love all the choice of fish as well. Glad to see that one Angelfish came around ok! I saw the same worried look on Christophers face as I've had on mine when a new fish didn't look so good. And Chris, your son looked in awe of it all. He was so happy. This video made my bit of a crap day all better, so thank you so much!

[@MJAquariums]

Another awesome setup MD, that wood hardscape looks amazing! We have been watching your videos since you started and you (and Fish Shop Matt) inspired us to create our own 5ft aquascape so thank you!

[@Boss-zo4lw]

Thats lots of live food for the Angels, poor buggers.

[@Rob5KLFC]

Love your content MD, wish I could go to the US especially South Florida, love from Swindon.❤

[@KatherineMargaret]

Oh my god, absolutely love this video. So wholesome. Thank you for the free therapy. ❤

[@John-vo2bl]

so what's the status of that 1 angel, at the end only saw 5 swimming, unfortunate if gone. not really a fan of neons with angels or discus, there like perfect snack food if they get to close to them. nice build though.

[@carolebraswell982]

I thoroughly enjoyed this build! It turned out amazing!!!

[@pawanmalla1137]

Thanx for the lovely video once again. What i missed in this video is Matt. You guys are great, funny and really comply eachother.

[@rmcreativehome7089]

I agree! Great set up! Love it! And you should come to Cape Cod next to help me with my 300 gallon diy tank! I would love to make something cool:)

[@donhabel1590]

Great set up beautiful you always knock it out of the park👍👍

[@nunya___]

At the end they didn't mention the background but it looks so good...maybe the best I've ever seen.

[@lizzyanthus1]

Joey from The King if DIY channel had/has a lot of those kind of backgrounds. They are gorgeous! So realistic!

[@pecosR0B]

Dallas North Aquarium is a great store but they are CERTAINLY not cheap and very proud of what they sell lol. I sell a lot of neo shrimp to them and to Fish Gallery.

[@IsaacNNCH]

MD: it's your tank put the leaves where u want. Also MD: pu them there, put them there, it's nice this way 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@babypapaya8229]

Wow! Came out fantastic. I think the rope fish is good idea too

[@khgn1234]

I love your US trip.. awesome What a shop... I hardly can buy any here in the Phillipines.. my local fish store has like 5-10 tanks for fish... and 1 tank for plants.... what mostly is empty.

[@andreacunningham5502]

I think you should do a series where you go out scaping people's aquariums? 😁

[@leigh8130]

Your Forest Gump impression is awesome MD! Lol! Great job with the scape as usual!

[@dr-k1667]

Well Done MD. I hope you enjoyed your brief trip to the USA. Next time bring Matt!

[@master0fursinz]

Gotta say this is one of my favorite builds Doc. Amazing

[@jkcargo3784]

Was waiting on this video . Great setup

[@GlassSurfing]

Context is an amazing thing. I've never noticed you as pale before, MD! You're welcome on the East Coast anytime but it gets pretty hot here too. Great build as always, lucky kid

[@ianmilillo8491]

That is such an awesome tank!!!! I really like the fish that you added in there, my father and I have tanks as well. We both have 29, 10 and 5 gallon tanks.

[@neth77]

This is a stunning tank, both you guys are such cool people and it's great to have friends in the same hobby, hope your travels and time in the USA are good fun, hello from Australia.

[@BeagleRescuer13]

😮 just gorgeous! Well done!!

[@littlemidwestrebornsdolls]

Another very nice tank. Chris' son really liked it. 🐡🐟🐠 Gina Hetlage

[@ronlafond5288]

Hey Chris @christopher_scott , thanks for sharing your tank and the whole setup with us. It looks frekin' awesome! Curious - what's teh background made of, and where did you get it? And @MDFishTanks - nicely done. I hope you had a great time here in the USA!

[@GodisTruth914]

MD! I found you through Christopher Scott's channel!!! I live in Killeen, Texas!!!!! It's like 2 hours from Dallas/Fort Worth

[@DonkeyKongDanny]

Ok question time 150 neons guaranteed to repro 5 angles an bunch of other stuff in a 100 gallon tank isn’t that to many fish I always thought you go off of 1inch for every gallon unless im very wrong or saying it wrong just a question don’t bash me

[@SamFlaherty-nt4cv]

British people vs Texans is always so funny to watch. Such a classic rivalry

[@hightopshannah]

I have never seen someone be so british that they can't do a southern American accent 😂😂 so funny MD great video

[@ronniegoudie4672]

This is one of my favorite ones that you've done

[@aquariumdelirium]

Nice one MD Chris and son looking well pleased

[@bsrrieadgie3040]

I thought it was so cool seeing you and Chris are friends iv watched his videos for years and I wish you got to meet Bretton(Finnatic)

[@jimmyturner537]

Chris needs to hang that light up because it will still go out eventually from the water evaporation. Mine did an his will too, I’ve learned to hang mine up an they work better that way also the algae doesn’t build up as fast when hanging it up.

[@rahamimdavidov5439]

So amazing !! MD has to visit America much more !

[@space_ghost_z941]

Great build! Happy for Max! XD

[@michaeljervis3181]

Hey MD love the videos. I do worry for your neons as the angel fish grow they will become a snack 😢

[@John-vo2bl]

my thoughts exactly

[@hraz7134]

Yup, I worked in a fish store some years ago and people would regularly return their angels for this reason😢 Im surprised MD didnt know

[@driftindriftwood7301]

Great tank. May lose a few neons over time with those angels.

[@shaymaanburkatally3544]

I would love to see more like this md

[@foodandstuff2724]

What wold be cool is md doing a Maidenhead aquatics uk tour and doing his aquascapping in store. Don't no if you have ever done this but sales would go up and your subscribers would I guess aswell. Just an idea

[@brandhark7935]

We need A LOT MORE of MD’s Texas accent!!! LOL!

[@matslondahl420]

Awesome scape as always but neon tetras are expensive food for the angels. Dont put neons With angels😊

[@Schmittyapolis]

MD - you are reigniting my desire to return to freshwater fish tanks!

[@valeriee9532]

Awesome tank!

[@richardconroy1434]

Tank looks awesome as usual... Curios the little camera thing, anyone have any tips on a budget/good aquarium camera under water style?

[@going35]

I need one of those MD tank tops lol

[@Only1Sosa.]

Tv casting worthy 🔥

[@bm3aquatic]

Looks incredible

[@DansFishThings]

Aye I was waiting for this video. When I saw your coming to America video and you mentioned seeting up a tank for your buddies son but I never saw the tank. Now I know why

[@Gigi_Tonya]

Absolutely beautiful tank!

[@SiniSimon]

Stunning tank ! Just a heads up.. as the angels get bigger, they may snack on those tetras.

[@chiprodda2634]

When you gonna get a Jeep,Tex?😂 Great video MD. Glad you could hop across the pond.

[@Twinkley1981]

That tank looks amazing 🤩
